They Heal in Options.

"The real estate market is getting
right lively again." said Whitney Wall
yesterday as he leaned back in his rose
wood chair, piled his feet up on top of
his mahogany desk, and displayed the
front of his song and dance shirt to the
best advantage.
There was Il week or two that things were
rather quiet. That was just after that Ash
land furry, but buyers are catching their sec
ond wind,and the prospects are Frightening"
I'm just going up to the bank, said Ram
say Crooks, displaying plethoric pocket
book that held several dozen crisp, new bank
notes and checks. Some of these fellows
pulse around here have commenced to beat
again, and we'll have about two months of
pretty lively business in the real estate line
yet, if nothing happens"
The GLOBE reporter mixed up with
the real estate dealers considerably yes
terday and found them all wearing
cheerful cOuntenanceS that indicate per-
feet contentment and satisfaction.
Everybody seemed to be busy and there
was hardly firm visited that had not
sent out one or more carriages with pur-
chaSers to look over different pieces of
property.
There is no boom on any particular piece
of property or in any particular locality"
said one dealer. Lots i'll any part of the
city is good property to own and will yield
the purchaser a good margin in Il short time.
Most of the dealing now is done in options,
which, of course isn't considered legitimate
trade, but it puts money into circulation and
somebody must own the property all the
while. Even the men who are able to pur-
chase valuable property outright, show very
little disposition To do so, preferring to take
options and run the risk of the property in
creasing in value before the second payment
has to be made.

What the Dealers Say.

w. S. Munroe-I cannot say that there has

week. Everything appears TO be just about
he same except that there is gradual
strengthening up of the market. This natur-
ally produces disposition to hold for better
prices. The demand for acre property con

buyers here looking for good investments.

Notes by the Way.

Next above DeCoster Il Clark's six-story
brick block, on the west side of jackson
street, between Fifth and Sixth streets, an
excavation is being made of 100 feet on
jackson street Fifty feet of this belongs TO
Samuel Mayall. and the other 80 feet feet be
longs to DeCOster Il Clark. Mr. Mayall viii
erect siX-story pressed brick block. with
fifty feet front and ON the other lot MeSsrs.
DeCoster Il Clark viii erect a structure SINH
lar in all respects. This will make a block
altogether, of 100 feet front and six stories
high, which will be one of the handsomest i'll
the city. and each of the two to be erected
will cost about $4,000 each.
The old brick block erected on the corner
of Seventh and jackson streets by the late
Alderman keigher and occupied most of the
time by j. 7. Allen, as drug store, is being
torn down TO make room for Mr.. Schultz 5
new block that is to be built ON that location
this summer. There was some expectation
at one time that the owners south of this
store would also join and assist in erecting
on that corner, which is one of the most
prominent corners i'll the city, block of
buildings that would be an ornament TO the
city and something suitable for such loca-
ton.
new manufacturing center has just been
started OH Edgerton street. at the crossing of
the st. Paul d; st. Croix Falls railroad. This
Is about two miles northeast from jackson
and Seventh streets. The Minnesota Scale
company will put in plant there and IL

Nina and harrington avenues, to cost
$4,000. 't''. 49,. a.
Greenleaf Clark's brick block on the corner
of Fifth and Minnesota streets, is up to the
second story and begins to show some signs

The Record,

As general thing the individual sales
this week have been for small sums, but
the aggregate is about the same s1,313,-
GID. and they keep well up to the gen
eral average of S250,000 per day. The
study of the figures shows that the bust
ness of selling real estate in ST. Paul has
got down to system where everything
is regulated by the demand, and that it
is on solid conservative basis that in
dictates health. The following are the
aggregate sales and permits of the week:

at 2::30 o'clock in the after
noon. This property is de-
hghtfully situated at the
junction of the St. Paul &
Duluth the Central Wis
consin and the st. Paul &
st. CrOix Falls railways;
the Omaha railway is but
one mile distant. A good,
substantial depot has been
built at this point, where all

mentioned are obliged to
stop. During the coming
season there will be hourly
communication with the
union depot at a fare not to
exceed 10 cents for the
round trip. The ground
lies beautifully, overlook
ing as it does Lakes Phalen
and Wakefield; as a resi-
dence location it is unsur-
passed; for manufacturing
purposes, the fact that over
10000 feet or nearly two
miles of trackage front is
to be sold, is a sufficient in
dicatiOn of it's value. AS a
business point it will be to
North St. Paul what the
Minnesota Transfer is to-
day to Hamline and Mer-

investment there is nothing
in the limits Of the city that
can compare with it, as it
has everything to commend
it in it's favor. AS homes
fOli the masses of the peO-
Pile in moderate circllm-

the means Of rapid transit
to the center of the city
makes it especially desir-

Directors Day.

The meeting OF the school directors
of the county was held in connection
with the Destitute on Wednesday De
cember 22i. The forenoon meeting
was called TO order in Fifth street
building at IL O'Clock a. tn, by County
Superintendent Grimes aud was organ
lied by the selection of j. G. Brown of
Bloomsbury as President and w. T.
Greasy of Cattawissa as Secretary. An
essay on the "Needed improvements
in our Public Schools" was read by A.
p. Young, in which he spoke about
the needs of central high school in
each district and reducing the number
of schools. The essayist also advocat-
ed having the public school building
look more like home instead of stand
ing in some fence corner as many now
do. He said he believed in compul.
sorry education, with uniformity of text
books, skilled teachers and technical
education
The subjects of compulsory educa
ton" and uniformity of text books"
were discussed to some extent. A vote
was called for and resulted in favor of
compulsory education, uniformity of
text books throughout the country, but
in opposition to the law of free text
books for the district.
MIR. Rosenstock read an essay on the
'Dulies and Responsibilities Of Direc.
tors in which he stated that school
boards should not only look after school
property but exercise great care in
selecting teachers. The discussion was
opened by Ezra Ewes OF Pine, who
stated that parents should visit schools
more frequently following this thought
with macy more good suggestions.
